This book provides the new-novice Java programmer with some practical examples for using Java for the study of Computer Science. Unlike many of the Java books out there this one does not skimp on the instruction of Computer Science principals in parrellel with the instruction of the Java language. As a plus it has some pretty useful breakdowns of classes that will be useful to a new Java programmer(such as String, Math, etc.) If those reasons were not enough, it also makes an excellent reference because of the way the book is written. The logical progression between chapters allows you to remeber almost without looking at the index exactly where that one snipit of code to do something was. I think that this is a must for any programmer who is teaching themself to program, because one cannot learn just to program without the theory behind how it should be done.
